Re: anoco
Disclosure: I am the author of an open source library which I license with LGPL.
I do not think copying an API and disrespecting the API license should be allowed!
A good API is a lot of work and it should not be excluded from copyright! Just like the implementation!
If you don't like the license of my library, don't copy my API and replace the license!, create your own API! work hard to get users learn your API! market your API! do not STEAL my work! APIs are not something trivial!
What Google did in this case amounts to stealing, plain and simple.
